My Free Patterns

The boxes have been sent!!

Well we came through the horrendous wind storm yesterday in one piece.  This morning I was lucky to accompany my daughters school to the cinema to see Puss in Boots.  It was worth riding in a bus full of rather loud excited children to go and see it.  I love Puss.

Anyway, according to the Royal Mail, today is the last day to send parcels to the USA and hope they get there by Christmas.  So I duly trundled off (so many layers to keep warm now) and sent my presents whizzing away.  Here are a few more I made this week:

For my nephew I made a few bow ties.


For my Aunt, another calorimetry.  Yes, I can't get enough.  And because I love her oh so much, I slapped a big ole' flower on the side.  I think she will like it, I'm half in love with it myself.

I also finished Ryan's Basketweave Scarf, I LOVE it.  I hope he does too.
Sorry about the rubbish picture.  The sun shined in the window and I got excited but it still doesn't look great.  You get the idea though, and I figure I can't win photographing black anyway.


And that's all for me this week, check out these crafty hops:

  4. Beautiful projects :) I love the scarf (and the light through the window probably helps show off the pattern better than usual black yarn pictures anyway!)
